Make smooth, custard-like egg bites at home that taste just like the Starbucks favorite. This recipe uses an Instant Pot to achieve the signature texture.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese (full fat recommended)
  • 1/4 cup Gruyère cheese, shredded
  • 2 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Cook the bacon until crisp, then crumble it. Set aside.
  2. In a blender, combine the eggs, cottage cheese, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Blend until completely smooth, about 30 seconds.
  3. Stir in the shredded Gruyère cheese and crumbled bacon by hand. Do not overmix.
  4. Lightly grease a silicone egg bite mold or a standard muffin tin.
  5. Pour the egg mixture evenly into the mold cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
  6. Prepare your Instant Pot or pressure cooker with 1 cup of water in the bottom. Place the trivet inside.
  7. Carefully place the filled egg mold onto the trivet.
  8. Secure the lid and set the vent to sealing. Cook on High Pressure for 8 minutes.
  9. Once cooking is complete, allow the pressure to naturally release for 5 minutes, then carefully quick release any remaining pressure.
  10. Remove the mold and let the egg bites cool for 5 minutes before removing them from the mold.

Notes

  • For a smoother texture, strain the egg mixture through a fine-mesh sieve before adding cheese and bacon.
  • If you do not have an Instant Pot, you can bake these in a water bath (bain-marie) in the oven at 325°F (160°C) for 20-25 minutes.
  • These are excellent for meal prep and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
